Abstract
In order to meet the urgent needs of high-reliability portable plasma generators in many fields, this paper designs a portable atmospheric pressure air discharge plasma generator and tests its discharge performance. By using a high-voltage package to amplify the low-voltage pulse generated by the micro-arc lighter, and then multi-stage amplification by the voltage-doubling rectifier circuit, a high-voltage pulse generator with low input, high output, compact structure and repeatable charging is realized, which can effectively break through the air to form a blue-purple plasma arc. The purpose of this paper is to provide a convenient and rechargeable plasma generation scheme, which is oriented to industrial applications and can meet the needs of plasma applications in material insulation detection, short-time discharge, confined space discharge and other occasions.
